The first bail application filed on behalf of the petitioner was dismissed as withdrawn by this Court vide order dated 08.09.2025 while giving liberty to renew the prayer for bail after recording the testimony of material witnesses. After passing of more than one [2026:RJ-JP:20727] (2 of 3) [CRLMB-14256/2025] month of rejection of first bail application, the petitioner has filed this second bail application stating that the material witnesses are not turning up despite issuance of summons. 3. It is contended by learned counsel for the petitioner that the accused-petitioner has falsely been implicated in this case. Counsel submits that after filing of this second bail application, total eight material witnesses including the complainant have been examined during the course of trial and there are several improvements as well as implication in their testimony. Counsel further submits that there is lack of material evidence to connect the present petitioner with the alleged crime. Counsel also submits that petitioner is in custody since 12.10.2024; trial will take considerable time in its conclusion and thus, further custody of the petitioner would not serve any fruitful purpose. 4. Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor assisted by learned counsel for the complainant vehemently opposes the prayer for bail. It is submitted that there are serious allegation against the petitioner that he along with other co-accused persons, in a criminal conspiracy, arrived at the house of the deceased while armed with deadly weapon viz. country-made pistol, revolver, axe etc and fired gunshot upon him. It is submitted that there is direct allegations against the petitioner that he fired gunshot on the chest of the deceased, resulting into his death. It is further submitted that looking to the nature, seriousness and gravity of offence as well as the active role of the petitioner in the alleged crime of murder so also the evidence that has come on record so far, the petitioner does not deserve indulgence of bail. They, thus, crave dismissal of the bail application. [2026:RJ-JP:20727] (3 of 3) [CRLMB-14256/2025] 5. I have considered the contentions. 6. Having regard to the totality of the facts and circumstances of the case and considering the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the parties, especially the statements of the material witnesses including the complainant, who is the eye-witness of the incident, so also considering the fact that there is direct allegation against the petitioner of firing gunshot upon the chest of the deceased as well as looking to the nature, seriousness and gravity of offence, but without expressing any opinion on merits/demerits of this case, this Court is not inclined to enlarge the petitioner on bail. 7. Accordingly, this second bail application stands dismissed. 8. The observations made hereinabove are only for decision of the bail application and would not have any impact on the trial of the case in any manner. (ANIL KUMAR UPMAN),J Manoj Solanki /3
